Core Values
-
Sustainable, ecological, and culturally sound agriculture is the core of what we do. We aim to practice and teach methods that are kind to the land and our bodies.
-
We believe in the fair and equitable distribution of resources—ALL should have access to food that sustains the Earth and their local communities.
-
We center land and food as universal topics, which bind us together regardless of race, class, or creed.
-
We encourage kindness towards Earth and all her creatures (animals, plants, and humans alike) and model these values on our farm.
-
We believe in the healing power of nature. Our land and animals infuse us with joy and foster impactful connections.
Support the Farm
Sugar Roots is a non-profit entity and gladly accepts donations. 100% of our funding is reinvested in the farm, where it becomes soil, seeds, feed for our animal ambassadors, and more.
